What a week! Still in pain… but have just felt led to pray and ask for healing. So I have.
My daughter and her family left for home the other day. Then another daughter phoned me and ordered me to take it easy… worried about my back. A third daughter and her family arrived the following day! The income tax return arrived and hubby and I banked most of it (thank You Lord!) and bought a few things we’ve needed. He is so happy!
Had a nice time with my daughter and her family, and they left to go home an hour or so ago. They brought lots of packed boxes and left them in our crawl space. They will be back in a couple weeks with the rest of their stuff. They did lots of rental (house) hunting while here.
Yesterday I go an email from a friend about “our church” and I emailed back saying I just don’t know how to respond, that I feel sick to my stomach about the last big blow-up and don’t know anymore what to think… that I feel like maybe I’m just crazy…
And she wrote back that Your Spirit does speak to me… and then I closed the email and did a couple things, and then went to Your Word and prayed my usual prayer that You would open Your Word to my heart… and right then You so clearly spoke to me and said that her word about Your Spirit speaking to me, was itself a Word from You… and that what I was at first so sure was You releasing me from “church” … and then me feeling unsure and depressed and wondering if I was wrong… well, Your word to me was YOUR WORD, Your Spirit speaking to me! Thank You! (So that covers the whole “Christian school” teaching job question, too, doesn’t it? Yes. Thank You!)
So of course I don’t know what is going to happen now, when/ where/ what/ how/ why our future might be… but I do know WHO: You! Wow! Thank You. Praise Your holy name. I love You, Lord!
(later)…. So for the rest of the day I did laundry… and scanned lots of pictures… and then joined a fb group of people who used to attend the family Bible camp I went to in the past… and I posted lots of camp photos there! Oh! And I also went Vancouver Island “house hunting” on-line!
